Suddenly insecurity kicks in...

Hi guys,

I am a junior at a public target (send 3-7 people to each BB/MM/boutique each year).

So I applied to Big 4 internship to see how competitive it is. and the results are disappointing.

I applied to PwC structured finance, E&Y risk advisory, Deloitte consulting, KPMG business performance. And I only got interviews for the first two.

How are these internships compared to the IBD/ER recruiting in terms of difficulty?
